Publisher Description
488 Rules for Life is not a self-help book, because it's not you who needs help, it's other people. Whether they're walking and texting, asphyxiating you on public transport with their noxious perfume cloud, or leaving one useless square of toilet paper on the roll, a lot of people just don't know the rules.
But thanks to Kitty Flanagan's comprehensive guide to modern behaviour, our world will soon be a much better place. A place where people don't ruin the fruit salad by putting banana in it ... where your co-workers respect your olfactory system and don't reheat their fish curry in the office microwave ... where middle aged men don't have ponytails ...
What started as a joke on Kitty Flanagan's popular segment on ABC TV's The Weekly, is now a quintessential reference book with the power to change society. (Or, at least, make it a bit less irritating.)
What people are (Kitty Flanagan is) saying about this book:
'You're welcome everyone.'
'Thank god for me.'
'I'd rather be sad and lonely, but right.'
'There's not actually 488 rules in here but it sure feels like it'.
Customer Reviews
Second best book I’ve read.
This is the second best book ever. ( because I have not found the “best” one yet ) Quite a few times I just burst out laughing as I was reading this book. I loved it. Thank you Kitty.
Excellent
Excellent rules!
What have you done?
Did you think this through? How many terrible conversations are you going to endure as a result of writing this book? The whole way through I thought “yes!! And......” I hope for your sake you never meet me because I won’t be able to help myself!
